transcript
show notes
Therapists Julie Goldberg joins Kristie and Felicia to unpack the mechanics of nervous system regulation and offer a practical, somatic perspective on mental health. They explore the range of human response from fight-or-flight to shutdown. This episode reframes anxiety and burnout away from personal failures to adaptive physiological responses designed to keep you safe.
Some takeaways:
• The differences between safety, mobilization and shutdown.
• Why the goal isn't permanent calm but building resilience and flexibility.
• How our bodies naturally find safety in the presence of another regulated human.
• Changing the narrative from "What's wrong with me?" to "What is my body trying to tell me?"
• Simple somatic techniques to help navigate your stress.
